This document describes a passive adapter for wireless charging of an electronic device and associated methods and systems. The described passive adapter includes two coils connected by a capacitor and separated by a core material that prevents mutual coupling between the coils. These two coils may have differing sizes, such that one coil can size-match to a transmitter coil of an existing wireless charger and the second coil can size-match to a smaller (or larger) receiver coil in a wireless-power receiver to charge a battery of the wireless-power receiver. In aspects, these two coils may be separated by a distance that enables the passive adapter to act as a passive repeater by bridging a space between the transmitter coil and the receiver coil.
